This is a basic subject on matrix theory and linear algebra. Emphasis is given to topics that will be useful in other disciplines, including systems of equations, vector spaces, determinants, eigenvalues, similarity, and positive definite matrices.

i'm a filipino and i'm planning to go back to college this semester so i can finish my elctronics and communications engineering . i was hoping that thru this open courseware i'l be able to review an almost a decade backlog of study. is there a way to download a single file compilation of these lectures? thanks

It is adorable to see MIT opening the courses to the public. I am a 21 year old Iranian student and I find everything here in great explanations and by following my own syllabuses I get to learn the most I can. Thanks to MIT and All the lecturers. God Bless You

I'm Chinese-American Computer Scientist. In fact, I started out as an Mathematics major and then switched to Computational mathematics. I love math.

I'm extremely exciting about finding this material, because it is the best Liner Algebra course I ever take. I appreciate its beauty. Sometimes I got so exciting that I explained it to my mother on Labor day.

Thanks a LOT Gilbert for this material. For me also it's probably the most interesting, the most exiting, the most pedagogical and full of conceptual ideas course in linear algebra I've ever listen. Every professor should listen what teaching mean by looking at your lessons.

I'm a brazilian student of engineering from UFMG. I'm very glad and thankfull for the OCW. This way, I can learning things related to my course and improoving my english at the same time. Sorry if I commited any mistake. Thanks Mr Strang.

As a foreign student graduated years ago and wants to go back to school, the OCW is a wonderful site for me. I could learn freely after work, download to my computer, do the reading at the same time watching the video and improve English as well! Thanks Dr. Strang! Your class is gorgeous and it's easy to understand the complex conceptions!

I am planning to pursue my research in image processing, when I was looking for some materials to refresh the basic concepts of linear algebra, I came across this lecture series.... wow, excellent. Prof. Strang is great, the way he simplifies the complex concepts... Hats off to him...

I'm an Iranian civil engineer and I love math.In fact, I started out as desighner but now I'm very interested in math that I am going to study math. it is the best course I ever seen. I appreciate its beauty. Sometimes I got so exciting that I explained it to my son.Thanks prof. Gilbert, Live Long and Healthy.

I am Kenyan living in South Africa and studying at UNISA BSC Computer Science (long distance). These videos are God-Sent! They fill in gaps in my self study and more importantly I can have my 'class' on the train on my way to work! MiT ROCKS!

I saw this and it made me fall in love with maths all over again. He is simply amazing. Got the textbook. So amazing and lucid. It makes me feel its not these people (MIT scholars) are very different, its just that they view things in such clear uncomplicated way. Thank you very much. Please have more such video lectures for other courses too. Its for the greater good and enhancement of knowledge and ultimately mankind.....

I am from Pakistan and these lectures have flawed my previous understandings about linear algebra. Being a good mathematician hated LA due to absurd concepts from alot of absurd sources...but an interesting person makes everything interesting.....and today i feel like a expert in LA..

I am from Indonesia, and still an undergrad student.All i want to say is a gratitude.Thanks God I found your lecture, it helps me a lot understanding the beauty of linear algebra.Every lecturer of math should sees your way of teaching!Splendid

I am very impressed with his teaching basically i am a game programmer and i am weak in linear algebra and game developement involves equations by seeing this video tutorial i learned many things.The good thing about strang is the way he teaches he goes in depth of each concept and when he teaches he puts a question and tells practical example that makes me understand solution better.strang you r awesome every professor cant teach like this.Many professor till now i had seen they just tell how to use the formulae but no one tells how it comes thats where you stand and thats the reason i like your teaching.

Thank you, Prof. Strang. I'm a Chinese, my English name is Shirley. Your lecture is conscise and beautiful. I watch it just as watching an attractive movie. I think I already become your fan now. Wish you be healthy and happy everyday.

I am rahul gaikar, i just complited my degree in mathematics from modern college pune and trying for entrance of msc in university of pune, these videos of linear algebra are really helpful to me Thanks, u r exellent sir.

I am Tariq, student of Computer Science from Pakistan. I am a big fan of Prof. Strang. This course was really helpful fom me. I got 4 GPA in LA just because of it. I have no words to praise Prof. Strang. I wanna say I love you Sir.

Iam José, friend of Miguel that last year was knowing you at MIT. I am from Veracruz, Mexico and a professor of Linear Algebra in the Universidad Veracruzana and i use your text book. I want to say thanks a lot for your lectures.

I cant help myself to see this course as a movie series, I am seeing 7 sessions a day. I am not just learning Linear Algebra but also I am learning how to learn and how to teach.I wish someday I can teach quantum mechanics like you teach linear algebraMost Sincerely
